Andrew:
If I am reading the diffs right, the change is that if the PRNG was not seeded
with anything at the point output was requested, then 32 bytes are pulled from
SecureRandomAdapter (which in turn uses either /dev/random or VMSecureRandom)
to use as a seed. (Just want to make sure my understanding is correct).
Looks good to me.
